Buck Naked Kitchen: Radiant and Nourishing Recipes to Fuel Your Health Journey
Kirsten Buck. Houghton Mifflin Harcourt, $28 (272p) ISBN 978-1-328-58992-7
In this accessible debut, Buck, creator of the Buck Naked Kitchen blog, shares healthy, tasty meals based on the Whole30 lifestyle. While not all recipes strictly adhere to the Whole30 plan, those that do are called out and include such inventive creations as rutabaga fritters and flavor-packed chimichurri shrimp, as well as portable, prepped meals including Faux Pho Noodle Soup and a Tex-Mex Jar Salad. Can’t-miss dishes—spring vegetable quiche; smashed potatoes with roasted red pepper sauce; deviled egg potato salad; and a butternut squash and wild rice salad—will be welcomed by vegetarians and omnivores alike. Throughout, Buck includes several made-from-scratch recipes (mayonnaise and cauliflower rice, for example), as well as some higher-end recipes (Mini Scotch Eggs calls for quail eggs). Virtually all ingredients are easily sourced (substitutions, in some cases, are provided), and there are recipes for all tastes and skill levels. Readers—Whole30 adherents or not—will find plenty of healthful recipes in this fun and encouraging volume. (Apr.)
